Debate: Navy vs. Classic Blue

So you already have a pair of Vans Authentic's locked up and you are looking into buying yet another pair because, well, they are totally radical. The real issue here is not that you have a bunch of the same sneaker (since they are unstoppable) as it is what colorway should you spend your hard earned 42 bucks on? You've got your standard natural canvas, white, navy and red to choose from, but with the weather warming up you now have all these seasonal joints hitting the shelves as well. Do you go with the navy standby or do you rock the classic blue just now made available? Is it about the contrast stitching? What about the color of the sole? Damn...do you just buy both? You tell me 'cause I sure as hell don't have any idea.

if you are a little crazy and wear brighter colors grab the classic, if you wear quieter colors, go for the navy. personally, i wear the craziest colors possible in the summer, so i would scoop up a pair of classic blue

But, as unitedstyle and preston said if you're up for a pair, whatever the colour it's all about a gum sole.

Old School - the colour is a misnomer; a pair of shoes with not one but two adverts on them have no place in a gentleman's wardrobe. If this isn't reason enough to cut a new tack, bear in mind Cad's, Heels and Bounders always have more fun and prettier girls.
